![]() ![]() ![]() The prequel, also from showrunner Shonda Rhimes, expands upon the charm of Season 1 of “Bridgerton,” and makes up for the meh of Season 2, with a strong cast, fresh storyline and, most importantly, a new complexity and depth. It was great fun watching society’s ladies and gentlemen follow prudish etiquette while contending with the show’s contemporary ideas around love, free will and shameless hookups. The first season was a playful, revisionist history at its best: The ton was a colorblind mix of races, the queen was Black, and twee orchestras performed 21st century pop hits at 19th century balls. “Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story” has finally arrived, and the prequel is the best “Bridgerton” yet.įor the uninitiated: “Queen Charlotte” follows two previous seasons of Netflix’s whimsical drama about romance, matchmaking and carnal pursuits among England’s Regency-era aristocracy. Clutch your bosom and reach for the smelling salts. ![]()
